“I saw a lot of zeros, but I couldn’t believe it,” Chan said in a news release. “So, I called the phone number on the back of the ticket, and they told me I won $1 million!”
Chan said he had been playing the lottery for years but had never expected to win.
“It’s an unbelievable feeling.”
Chan plans to retire with his winnings and take a trip he’s always dreamed of.
“I’m going to go on an Alaskan cruise,” he said. “I’m really looking forward to it.”
